Re: Thyroid antibodies test results

[Guest guest]

Thyroid antibodies can come & go during the Hashi process. I had NO

thyroid antibodies for over 20 years then suddenly I had them again My

first Saliva antibody came out negative my second positive and was

mirrored by blood labs, but I do think blood is more accurate for

antibody testing than saliva.

Somebody here once said that when the antibodies show up in the saliva and not

the blood, they are growing but when they show up in the blood, they have

progressed and grown.

The thing is though, you may not have tested positive for the antibodies you

were being

tested for at a particular time, but you may not have been tested for all of the

antibody

markers that indicate thyroid disease.

I found that many docs just don't understand antibody function well enough to

even know

which ones to look at. That said, they do fluctuate as well.

So while you were probably tested freqently for TPO, there may have been others

rising as

TPO was falling and vice versa.
